one of them is completely oblivious to attempts to get him under the mistletoe

3. another character/s –

a weekend motorcycle club whose bikes are all named after Santa’s reindeers

4. a conflict – *deep breath*

finally engaged to the so-called woman of his dreams, one of the main protags finds himself left holding the baby after he discovers he was drugged and seduced by a former colleague at last year’s Christmas office party *gasp* who was determined to have a child before her biological clock ran out but tragically died only months later leaving her gorgeous younger, gay brother and the main protag as joint guardians of the child… as long as they live together… *panting*

5. an object/phrase to be mentioned in the story somewhere –

the last line of the story has to be ‘And that’s how you put the ‘ho’ in ‘ho, ho, ho”. *This e) is brought to you by L B Gregg.*

I hate you, I hate you all. *sob* Look for coal in your stocking, seriously. Arrgghh. A couple of these I can fit in, I've been mulling this secret baby GFY thing since I knew it was coming down the pipe, but the rest? A freaking motorcycle club? WTF? Before Christmas? Sigh.
